CTS is based on Simplicity because Simple Tactics result in Quick Responses & Effective Results. Emphasis is on actual self defence not on tournament games! CTS is for everyone not only for the athletic young and muscular. The training curriculum is specifically tailor made for the individual whether he/she be young old thin fat tall short or having other physical limitations. CTS Training benefits one and all.

The CTS course is a unique one, with lots of effort & research behind it. Even though i come with a background of martial arts the training at CTS was extraordinary which i had never experienced earlier. A very easy format which can be used in any real life situation by any person. Easy to teach with can be understood by any age group. I am looking forward for more advanced courses.
